League of Legends players have almost endless tools to improve their gaming experience. There are apps that allow us to improve our performance by learning new strategies in games or offering help. Although we would like to put the show aside and have a little more fun, we have access to tools that give us insight into how to make mistakes in Summoner’s Rift. The problem is that while all of these tools are great, they can be very problematic for the public.
Now a harmless app that everyone hates
The latest issues were caused by Ultimate Bravery. Known to many players, this application is nothing more than a tool that offers the possibility of randomizing absolutely everything in our game. The chosen champion, the runes, the skills to be maximized or the objects choose a system that does not correspond not the least bit to the meta. It’s not coincidental or weird that he suggests playing weird stuff like Renekton, who has to raise W first and buy Lich Bane as a second item. Total nonsense when it comes to matching win rates, but the main purpose of this app was mainly to have fun with custom games.
The problem from this point is the one you are all thinking about. Although this tool is designed to be used in casual matches and only when playing with a like-minded group, Some players are starting to use it when ranking up. Often with a secondary account that they don’t care about relegation, they use these crazy combinations that ruin the experience for the rest of their team. Whatever your level of play, defeat under these conditions is almost guaranteed.
The popular Tyler1 editor is a good example. After reaching the highest rank in all positions of the game, the creator seems to have recovered from the challenges and turned to such applications to find new ones. The problem is that even an authorized person cannot impose this on himself. Even playing Platinum 1 is a pretty high rank, but way below that, He has only won two out of ten games played under this strange rule and has a KDA of 0.9 in his eight losses.
Even though one of League of Legends’ most famous creators ventured into this kind of challenge, it was reason enough for some players to attempt the same with equal or worse results. Although this situation is not huge, it has led many players to demand official sanctions from Riot Games.. The reason is simple: if the company doesn’t take action against the publisher, it doesn’t appear to be breaking the rules, even if what they did was a deliberate loss.
Recently, the publisher lowered the ratings of these apps for no apparent reason. It should be noted that the League is part of the affiliate program. Therefore, it is possible for the developer to fix the problem with a personal warning and without any penalty. And the rest of us are in trouble. Using such practices in ranked games is not only a very bad idea for our ranking, but it can also lead to a very serious penalty.
